Jennifer, a staff member, told the ESInet users group that a Public Utilities Commission notice of proposed rulemaking is open for changes to optional and mandatory tariff items related to 911 services and that stakeholders can file comments ahead of a scheduled hearing.

The rulemaking is significant because tariff changes can alter service obligations, billing and technical requirements for carriers and providers that serve PSAPs.

“The notice of proposed rulemaking is open, for the rule changes for the optional and mandatory, tariff items,” Jennifer said, and she provided the proceeding identifier shown in the meeting materials as “25RDash04 or 0174T.” She told members that comments are due on May 20, responsive comments are due May 30, and a hearing is scheduled for June 9 at 11:30 a.m., where parties may provide testimony or oral comments.

Jennifer noted that many members had participated in drafting consensus language for the proceeding and encouraged anyone who wished to file separate comments to do so by the deadline.

No formal group filing was recorded during the meeting; members were advised to follow the PUC docket for filing instructions and hearing logistics.
